In this study, the investigation of hydraulic characteristics and the pier data for the rivers in Youngseo area of Gangwon Province was carried out and the evaluation and comparison between the values from existing formulas and the values from the model tests was conducted, along with the statistical sensitivity analysis of the elements influencing the scour. As a result, the deviation between the values calculated from the existing formulas and the model tests appeared to be 1.09%~63.98% as the piers were getting larger, which indicated that the existing formulas were not appropriate to estimate the scour in the rivers in Gangwon area. And the formula which estimates the scour with the size of the pier only, among the existing ones, was far behind in estimating the sensitivity because of insufficient incorporation of the hydraulic characteristics, though it is convenient to estimate the value. The sensitivity analysis of the value from the model tests and the depth of the scour proved the significant impact on scour by the size of the pier and water depth, indicating 64% and 36%, respectively. In this study, the formula developed through the regression analysis performed based on the values from the model tests, which appeared to be appropriate for the rivers in Gangwon Province, was proposed.

The local scour in waves can be thought of as very complex synthetic processes which is influenced by geology of bed material, bed flow in the sea and hydraulics condition. The most research until now be targeted at the scour depth and therefore the local scour width in waves has not been investigated as well. The size of wave or bottom velocity at the bed is direct cause of the local scour among lots of the scour effect factors, and the scour depth and width can be estimated through interrelationship analysis with scour area to use the dimensionless parameters including these such as Keulegan-Carpenter number, Ursell number etc. In this paper, to find out closely relation with the dimensionless parameters and scour width, performed an experiment with the variations of pipe diameters, wave heights and wave periods and then analyzed it. As the result, while Reynolds number and period parameter were seen to disperse local scour width largely, Shields number, KC number and Ursell number appeared good interrelationship. Specially, Shields number doesn't much affect the scour depth but has good relation for the scour width.

Various types of alternative energy sources to petroleum are being developed both domestically and internationally as clean energy that does not emit greenhouse gases. In particular, offshore wind power has been studied because the wind resources are relatively limitless and the wind power is relatively smaller than onshore. In this study, to analyze the scour phenomenon around offshore wind foundations, mono pile and tripod pile foundations were simulated using a FLOW-3D model. The scour phenomenon was evaluated for mono piles: one is a pile with a 5 m diameter and d=1.69 m and the other is a pile with a 5 m diameter. Numerical analysis showed that in the latter, the falling-flow increased and the maximum scour depth occurred more than 1.7 times. For a tripod pile foundation, the measured velocity and the maximum wave condition were applied to the upstream boundary condition, respectively, and the scour phenomenon was evaluated. When the maximum wave condition was applied, the maximum scour depth occurred more than about 1.3 times. When the LES model was applied, the scour depth reached equilibrium, whereas the numerical results of the RNG model show that the scour phenomenon occurred in the entire boundary area and the scour depth did not reach equilibrium. To evaluate the scour phenomenon around offshore wind foundations, it is reasonable to apply the wave condition and the LES turbulence model to numerical model applications.

A drop structure, one of the representative river-crossing structures, is constructed to stabilize a riverbed. On the other hand, the structure interrupts the continuity of the river and causes the destruction of the hydro-ecological environment. Therefore, laboratory experiments of a natural type of drop structure with low differences were performed, and the empirical formula of a local scour hole is proposed. Four experimental flow rates were tested for various types of the drop structure models with 28 test cases. Based on the scour test, it was confirmed that the maximum scour depth occurs rather than the result of applying the previously proposed scour depth formulae. Correlation analysis of the major factors of scour hole at the downstream of the drop structure revealed a strong correlation between the upstream flow characteristics, drop structure height, and total crossing length of the drop model. In addition, the depth and length estimation formula of the maximum scour hole were proposed using the dimensionless variables and validated. In the future, it is also expected that more accurate scour prediction and calculation can be derived by conducting experimental studies and numerical analysis considering the various bed materials and flow conditions.

해저면에 놓인 물체는 주변의 국소 흐름 변화에 의해 해저면 전단응력이 국부적으로 변화하는 과정에서 침식과 퇴적이 발생하게 되면서 해저면 지형의 변화에 의해 움직임이 발생한다. 이때 물체의 크기, 무게, 밀도와 형상에 따라 구름, 미끄러짐, 액상화 현상 또한 동반 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 해저면에 놓인 물체의 시간변화에 따른 매몰심 변화를 예측하고자 하였다. 물체는 원형 단면의 실린더 형태로 고려했다. 시간변화에 따른 매몰심 변화를 평형 매몰심으로의 접근속도에 관련된 인수와 매몰심 변화량으로 기본방적식을 구성하였고, 이를 유한 차분식으로 수립하였다. 최종 평형 매몰심 계산은 Friedrichs et al.(2016)의 경험식을 사용하였다. 앞선 연구에서 김효섭 등(2016)은 시간에 따른 세굴심 변화 모델 STEP-K를 제시한 바 있다. 시간변화에 따른 연직방향 실린더 주변에서의 국소세굴심을 예측하는 기법으로, 해저면에 놓인 수평방향 물체 주변의 매몰심 발달을 예측하기 위해 매몰 발생에 대한 시간의 척도를 새롭게 제안하였다. STEP-K에서 사용했던 KC수를 대신해 흐름-단주기 파랑 공조시의 해저면의 전단응력을 대표할 수 있는 대표전단응력을 사용할 수 있게 하였다. 보정계수를 통해 현장 또는 실험실 단위의 자료가 가용한 경우 식을 보정할 수 있다. 제안한 매몰심 예측기법은 Elmore et al.(2007)의 매몰실험 관측자료를 활용하여 보정하였다. 결과적으로 보정자료에 대한 시간에 따른 매몰심의 변화양상을 잘 재현하였으며, 향후 우리나라 해양환경 자료를 활용한 보정을 통해 적용성을 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The results of laboratory experiments on the clear-water local scour of cohesionless bed sediment at three types of the pier shape are presented. Based on the experimental data, the relative equilibrium depth of local scour is related to the pier shape, the geometric standard deviation of the bed material, the velocity ratio and the pier Froude number. The relative local scour depths were smallest ant the round-nosed pier and remarkably reduced at the non-uniform bed sediment, comparing with those at the uniform bed material. The effect of sediment grading on the local scour reduction was discussed and compared with Raudkivi and Ettema's experiments.

하천에서 세굴은 하천공학에 있어서 중요한 요소이며, 이러한 세굴은 주로 하천 만곡부에서 발생하게 된다. 하천 만곡부에서의 세굴은 하천 제방 등 하천 환경 제반 상황의 안정성에 지대한 영향을 미치는 요소이다. 만곡부 내 세굴의 진전 상황에 따라 제방 침식이 발생할 것이며, 최악의 경우 홍수시에는 이로 인해 하천 제방의 파제에 까지 이르러 하천 범람의 원인을 제공하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 위험성이 상존하고 있는 하천 만곡부에서의 세굴 특성을 실내 실험을 통해 밝히고자 하였다. 이를 위해 곡률반경 4.5m, 곡률 $45^{\circ}$의 만곡부를 가지며, 수로폭이 1.5m인 실험수로에서 실험을 진행하였다. 실험은 만곡부에 하천 구조물 설치 유무에 따른 흐름특성, 최대 세굴심, 세굴 범위 등에 관해 검토하기 위해 몇가지 경우에 대하여 실시하였다. 그 결과 하천 구조물을 만곡부에 설치한 경우 설치전과 다른 세굴양상과 수리특성을 보여주었으며, 설치 범위 및 설치 구조물의 형상에 의해서도 세굴 및 수리특성이 변화되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Scour characteristics of noncohesive bed materials at the downstream of free-falling jet were analyzed through hydraulic experiments. It was assumed that the downstream had no special energy dissipators. Flow characteristics of free falling jet from rectangular section were studied, and scour characteristics with and without mounds, which were generated at the downstream of the scour hole, were comparatively analyzed for various bed materials, discharges and tailwater depths. Not only the equilibrium scour depth but also the height of mound could be expressed as a function of densimetric Froude number. Densimetric Froude number had closer relationship with the equilibrium dimensionless scour depth than other dimensionless parameters. It was suggested that the mound effects should be considered at the design stage of bed protection works.
